Chris .. haha.. look like you enjoyed the Black Widow buggy!! Make sure you wash all that salt off the buggy and seats :lol:

Van, I've been bitten by the spider! It has been rinsed in fresh water, but it looks like it needs a good soaping. That Wildwood sand (?) leaves a residue. Thanks again for the buggy. She will ride again at JIBE! :bouncing:

It's the same muddy sand we have in Texas .. it's nasty stuff. I had no problem cleaning the desert dust off the seat after NABX so the muddy sand should come clean with no problem. How's the D-rings on the seat? They are nickel plated so didn't know how they hold up to the salt water. I am looking into stainless D-rings but they are expensive. If I do go with stainless, it will cost me an extra $20 just for the D-rings. Thinking about going with the double sided plastic buckles since they are easy to replace without any stitching required.

They are starting to rust, but not as bad as those spacers.
